Letters to your mini!

Recently I saw someone post about how they have friends and family write letters to their child. So grandma and grandpa, aunts and uncles, cousins, and of course mom and dad. Anyone that you want to of course add in to the mix would be fabulous also! I would have loved to read letters from family and friends from the beginning days!

So where do you keep them? A blog is always a good place to keep note of things as you go along. Family and friends could have the info to the blog to make posts about the fun times and special moments! I know a lot of family, especially the older ones have trouble with the internet, haha! Just get a nice box and simply do it the old fashion way, a letter!

Maybe it would just be for special events, or maybe a monthly thing. Whatever you do is up to you! But do it. Your little one will appreciate it down the line!

Never leave the dogs out!! Home made Dog Treats!

So why would you leave your furry little (or big) family members out of all the fun? They deserve some treats too! My girls LOVE food, especially chunky monkey Marley. But their stomachs can't always handle treats. They both LOVE sweet potato. So what else would I make them besides sweet potato bone biscuits!!

They of course loved them!

I just cooked sweet potatos on a baking sheet for 60 minutes. Put in the fridge to cool off for about 20 minutes. Then used a bone cookie cutter, scooped away the excess SP and put in freezer for another 20 minutes. Then finally, put in the fridge for a half hour. They were pretty formed and had hardened enough to be "biscuit like"! There were some happy little four legged kids in the house for sure!!
